This necklace has a large, faceted amethyst-glass briolette at each end of the silver-tone paper-clip chain. You can tie this 1920s Art Deco piece at any length and wear the briolettes the same length or one longer than the other. You can even tie this necklace in the back and have the briolettes accentuate a low-cut neckline in the back, which was typically done in the 1920s. The briolettes on this versatile piece have substantial weight and are gorgeous! This necklace is no longer available. Scroll down to see a similar piece that you might like.

Amethyst & Crystal Art Deco Necklace

USD$295.00

Faceted, long amethyst glass stones are separated by trios of faceted crystals collet-set in decorative mounts in this classic 1920s Art Deco necklace. The stones are all open-back to allow for the maximum reflection of light. The settings for the three crystals closest to the spring-ring clasp have plain edges – they were added to lengthen the original 14.5 inch necklace. This necklace may be sterling, but it is unmarked (except for the clasp). This gorgeous piece was part of my personal collection.
